- One night a man called and told my grandfather to get up at three o'clock at night and go down to the Castle (Castletown near Curraghboy) and he'd get a pot of gold but that one of the family would die before he'd get it. He didn't go. (Collected by Jim Mulligan Funshinagh from his grandfather Jim Kelly Coolagarry)
- In Kilcash there is a well. One day a girl went to the well for water. There was a ghost on the steps before her. She went home for her father when they came back he was gone.
(Rosie Kelly Kilcash - from Jim Kelly)
A light is seen at Leaba Diarmuid every night at 12 o'clock (Scregg). It goes across the hill
